Themed Host Armor

Unread post by Kyo »

Post any theme armor you have here (spider like, hunter, fish inspired) Using about 250 BIO-E points as an average, yell If you think it should be higher. Do quick battle tactics and character motivation for picking armor if you feel like it.

The hodge podge, I got this cause it's good in game armors are great for play, but I just want the true theme armors here. The type that have weaknesses so they could stay theme specific.

just a thought so far...

"Rhino" Themed
i thought something like this would make a neat host armor...just for inspiration...

Big Horn for a weapon...
Maybe alot of PS and PE, and Spd bonuses...

Weakness, no real weapons besides the horn used for ramming

Wouldnt hurt given em a Castling gun though...

Go for the Man-Spider look...
extra limbs, either a carnivore or vampire metabalism...
Gripping Hands

That way is might look like a mess of Spiderman & Venom/Carnage and alittle more original ;)

Cool!!!! But, I'm more than a little afraid of what you'll do with "Aquarius, the Water Bearer." Exactly WHAT do you plan to use for Water???

Want a challenge?
Try creating Robotech Mecha(or the nearest equivalent) as living organisms...Been messing around with some crude ideas for a heavily modified Gerwalk built from a warhorse...
Put the 'bio' back in 'Bioroid'.
Zentraedi hordes that not only invade you, but eat you out of house and home(to fuel all those bio-mecha)
Not to mention what the Invid could come up with...

Take it all the way up to living starships.
Then again, one would have to come up with 'Protoculture' and 'Flower of Life'-based metabolisms, and bring in psionics for soem features...

Doable I suppose, though illegal to post...

The vampire bat and the dragon are obvious themes. The naga of India is another cool theme.

That was bad. I think the Christmas pizza got to your brain. :p

Next you'll be saying a Lamiai-themed Host Armor is lame.

  • I think Kyo wanted us to post stats for themed Host Armor
  • Kyo, what level should we consider the level of the pilot of these suits we make?

Just post under a different name. Like armor based off the Hulk could be "Ultra Infantry", and Predator could be "Arsenal Proto-Armor"...or something to that effect.

Take a look at the Pincer Command Unit....
It already has twin heat cannons...Could be either a rather non-humanoid Host Armor with heavy carapace, flight capabilities, oversized arms, and some extra weaponry, or make it as a flight-capable artillery War Mount...Outrider and passengers ride in a cavity between the Heat Cannons...
The Gurab wouldn't be too much more different than the existing Leviathan..

Destroids would be more difficult...Though a Behemoth grown along the lines of a Mac II...the Mac's boarding hatch and prow just lend themselves well to a mssive rock-crushing jaw... Cannon arms can become big oversized claw-shields with weapons implanted...
I should probably try to take this on as another thread,,,
